D. Harvatis Jan 31, 2018:
Dave raises a good point, but I don't know if I would deviate so much from the source.
Haralabos Papatheodorou Jan 30, 2018:
There is also "puberty suppression treatment" (https://goo.gl/c6D3vC) (e.g. for transgender minors).
Dave Bindon Jan 30, 2018:
Puberty suppression is the correct translation, but would that be «υπό αγωγή» and reported in an ultrasound report in this way? Should it really be "delayed puberty" (something which is likely to be evident from an ultrasound and to be under treatment)?

puberty supression

Example sentence:

Puberty suppression therapy for gender dysphoria.

As suppression of puberty might also have a negative effect on brain development,45 the effects of puberty suppression therapy (as well as cross-sex hormone treatment) on brain development need to be evaluated.
